Spirit of Youth

Keirstin plays basketball, runs, is taking a Tlingit class and creates amazing artwork. She stays focused on herself, but is always willing to help others. She has had some struggles with her health, which led to her dealing with challenging anxiety that kept her out of the classroom at times. However, she always returns to class and picks up where she left off. This led to her recently being placed in an advanced class, where she initially struggled, but ultimately persevered and is overcoming challenges.
